Celestial spheres and personal rivalries collide when the spacecraft carrying the royal family ventures too near the orbit of a desolate planetoid, secretly inhabited by the mighty sorcerer Prospero and his beautiful daughter Miranda. After a fierce solar tempest, conjured by Prospero, the royal family is shipwrecked and separated. The spoiled and sharp-tongued princesses, Beta and Toni, make it difficult for their father, King Alonzo, to search for his lost son, Prince Frederick. Freddy is good company, however, being the first young man whom the beautiful Miranda has ever seen. Meanwhile, Prospero’s treacherous slave, Caliban, is quick to form a devious liaison with the malfunctioning androids, SV10 and Trink, for the purpose of overthrowing the mighty Prospero. Prospero, ironically, is busy exacting a revenge plot against his long-lost rival, King Alonzo. With the wise counsel of Zola, the governess, and Ariel, the noble spirit, the embittered royal kinsmen are finally able to put aside their differences in time to thwart the efforts of the real traitor, who arrives in time to give the ending an unexpected twist.
